The five of us crowded around my phone as I set us up an audition with StandBy Records. We were due to go in to their studio the next day and have at least three songs prepared to perform. Once a time was determined, I hung up the phone and Tia all but screamed in her excitement.

"Oh my God!" Flynn yelled, tackling me and laughing into my chest when we both fell to the floor. Cody had Aliyah on his back and the two of them were running laps around the basement. Tia came and collapsed on top of Flynn and before I knew it, I was at the bottom of a pile of my band mates.

When Andy came by the house to pick me up, I jumped on his and screamed into his shoulder, wrapping my legs around his waist and grinning widely. "We've got an audition with StandBy Records." Flynn yelled at him, still lying on the floor with Tia on top of him.

Andy looked at me, surprise all over his face. "StandBy? Seriously?" He asked. When I bit my lip and nodded he grinned, spinning me around and kissing me. "That's great! When is it?"

"Tomorrow afternoon." Aliyah yelled from Cody's back, grinning as she buried her face in the blond mess that Cody called his hair. Andy grinned and put me back on my feet, kissing me again and we went to sit down on the couch.

"Damn they're excited." He muttered as he watched the four of them yell and jump and collapse on the floor in a heap. I raised an eyebrow at him, jumping to my feet and collapsing onto of the pile of my firends on the floor. I felt a weight on my back and turned to see Andy lying on top of me. "Did you really think I was gonna miss out on the chance to be on top of you?" He asked with a smirk, kissing the back of my neck and pulling me to my feet.

We ended up making out on the couch as the others continued to run around like five year olds. Before we knew it, it was ten o'clock and the vodka was being taken out of the fridge. "I have uni tomorrow." I said with a sigh, taking a shot glass and downing it despite my words.

"We all do - well, except for Andy. Just get drunk and be happy, Leggy." Flynn said, poking my forehead and refilling my shot glass.

"I never said I was staying sober. It was more of a complaint than an excuse." I said with a smirk, downing the shot and handing the glass back for a refill.

The next day, Aliyah's alarm went off and my head burst with pain. "Turn that off, or I swear to god I will kill you Ali." Cody groaned from where he lay on the couch. I sat up and rubbed my eyes, instantly regretting it as my hand came back covered in makeup.

I looked around the room, smirking when I saw Tia and Cody lying together on the floor, all but spooning. Me and Andy lay together on one of the couches and Flynn and Ali were on the other. "What's the time?" I asked, my voice rough as I yawned and stretched.

"Half eleven- Shit! We've got to be at the studio for one." Alli yelled, jumping up the couch and pulling on her jacket. I needed to go home and get ready. I nodded and shook Andy awake.

"Andy, babe, we need to get going. It's half eleven and we need to be at the studio for one." I whispered, shaking his arm lightly. When he groaned and turned so he was facing the couch, I poured half a bottle of water over his head and chugged down the other half, pulling on my jacket as I did.

"What the fu-" He yelled, before stopping himself and clutching his head in pain. I held out a hand to help him up and pulled on my shoes. "Leigh, babe, your makeup looks awful." He told me as he pulled on his own shoes.

I just rolled my eyes and ran into the bathroom connected to the basement. Washing my face, I rubbed off my makeup and went back in to find everyone passing round a bottle of pills. "Painkillers?" I asked. Andy nodded and threw the bottle over to me, and I dry swallowed two before grabbing his hand, calling bye, and leading Andy out to the car.
